Two things I would do--I would bring in a defensive specialist to guard Murray, and I would tell Mitchell to go downhill to the rim repeatedly until the Nuggets stop him from getting there.

Two birds with one stone. Tell Mitchell to actually compete on defense and stop dribbling for 15+ seconds every offensive possession.
 
What the F! If not for Don we get swept. It was everyone not named Donovan that lost us that series.
Lmao so Donovan has no fault? Cool he scored some points 50 points in a loosing effort... big ****ing deal. HE BLEW A 3-1 Lead, and when it mattered he couldn’t close the deal. TO when we needed a bucket.

Perhaps he should actually try to play some defense, His defense is regularly beyond horrible, James Harden plays better defense then Mitchell
 
It is kinda sad. Mitchell started the game great 5 quick points off really good shots and defensive intensity and quick rotations but that waned quickly when he tried to get going by himself and failed. He needs to keep defending even if it's not working offensively.

“Tell Mitchell to compete on defense”.

Man stop. This isn’t on Mitchell. He’s guarding Harris who has 1 point. O’Neil is Guarding Murray. Mitchell has 1 more block than Gobert.

Maybe you ought to watch the game instead of riding Mitchell.

He did play kind of stinky in that half/

He's guarding Gary Harris because Gary Harris stinks at offense. Instead of spending all his energy unsuccessfully dribbling, maybe take on the challenge to guard Murray.

Haha looks at the stats. Has 2 blocks and held Harris to one point. Donovan was the reason we were in that series. And it’s a team sport. Gobert played like *** the first half of game 7. Don has had a rough going the part of this year. But he isn’t the only one. Goberts hands are worse than they have ever been. No words from you. Bogey has been off. No words. But it’s Dons fault. How about some positive vibes for all our guys instead of the negative glass half empty fans from the peanut gallery.
 
Hey we're getting killed by an active guard. Damn good thing we addressed our lack of D for players like Murray in the off season.

Oh wait.
 
I know that Nuggets are a historically great offensive rebounding team but may be try to box out some? Even more so if Gobert is contesting shots.
 
Denver has our number. We need to put our new perimeter defensive stopper in.

Oh wait.
